Mandala is a word derived from Sanskrit, an ancient Indian language. It means circle or round shape. In Hinduism and Buddhism, mandalas are used as aids for meditation and contemplation.

Mandalas are usually made up of geometric patterns such as circles, triangles and squares arranged symmetrically around a central point. These shapes can be decorated with colors, images and symbols that have spiritual meaning. Mandalas communicate with our subconscious in a mystical way.
